I need to select a specific scene without using select on launch.

In more detail - I have all my drum loops for my performance set in one track. I'm already observing which clip in that track is triggered. Now I need to say ex. 'when clip 8 on track 8 is triggered, jump forward 5 scenes and select that scene'.

I've figured out how to do all kinds of things with the selected track, but not how to actually select a track. I tried modifying the select next scene abstraction, but then it jumps from the currently selected scene and not from the scene corresponding to the first clip in the song.

Any help please.

As I understand it, you could simply send 'call fire' to the object with path 'live_set scenes 13', where 13 is calculated from 8+5.

Thanks ShelLuser, got it. I did check the LOM but somehow my brain thought selected_scene was all about the currently selected scene.
